VB.NET alone ??

Hi all,

Please help me with my doubt.
I have purchased VB.NET standard edition (just VB.NET and not the entire
studio). now my issue is , how do i make a composite control in VB.NET ? And
how do I use it in my application ?

Also, if I want to make a class library, when I say New > Project, there is
no option of a class library which I can make and compile to create a dll.
This "Class Library" option is there is VS.NET IDE, and also in VB.NET
enterprise edition...

Please suggest..

I believe you're looking for features that are not part of the Standard
Edition. You'll need Visual Studio .NET 2003 Professional Edition, at
minimum.
Here is a feature comparison chart for the various editions of Visual Studio
..NET:

And, here are the VB Standard Edition features:

I assume that the term composite control refers to usercontrol. You can add
a usercontrol by selecting "Project" -> "Add UserControl...".
Also, if I want to make a class library, when I say New > Project, there
is

You are right, the Standard edition doesn't contain the templates for class
library projects. Workaround:

There's a free .NET development package called #develop (SharpDevelop) that
is compatible with Visual Basic .NET and can create class libraries.
